Colorado Adventure Begins

We left Sedalia on Monday, July 5 and drove to Limon for the night and then on to 11 Mile State Park. We actually got the same site we had last year -- the best one in our opinion! We have shade almost all day, a view of the lake in one direction, a view of snow-capped mountains in another direction and a lovely alpine meadow backed by a large crag in another direction.

This place just excites all your senses! The smell of Ponderosa Pine permeates the whole area. The buzz of bees and the twittering of birds combines with the chirping of chipmunks as they chase each other over the boulders. A gentle breeze brushes the skin or a large whoosh of wind blows your hair into your eyes. Then at mealtime you can taste the savory juices of a grilled steak or burger.
